Porches and the Gardens

Porches and the Gardens

After an evening at the theater, dinner by the Mississippi River, or a bicycle ride around Lake Winona, guests come home to relax on any of our three porches: The front porch with its swing, the portico porch, screened in and a delight during a summer rain storm, and the four-season porch, cooled by air conditioning in the summer, warmed by a gas fireplace in the winter. We also offer our quiet, private gardens where guests watch the stars come out with friends while enjoying a glass of wine, a frosty cool drink, or a cup of tea. Guests are fond of gathering at the tables to challenge each other in a board game, sitting back on the four-season porch to soak up a movie before bed, or simply chatting and laughing into the night under the dome of the heavens. Utilizing our free wifi service, business travelers seize opportunities to compose work assignments and contact associates, treated to pots of steaming coffee and a house-baked goodie while relaxing in seasonal comfort. We will also serve guests a carefree breakfast early on the four-season porch if an appointment or meeting calls them away. With their sunny, casual, and genial atmospheres, both Conrad and Anna would have been enchanted.
